I’m so tired of being alone,” Heller whispered, voice broken. “So very tired of being on the outside looking in. Please …”I tightened my arms around him. Could Heller be asking for what I thought? “What, Heller? Please what? What do you want?” “You,” Heller murmured. “I want you. Please tell me you don’t hate me for what I did. Or how I acted in the beginning. Please give me a chance … please don’t leave me.” Squeezing my eyes closed, I fought not to let the tears escape, my heart threatening to break at the anguish I heard in Heller’s voice.
